IP pin & migrating your VPS

Why we pin

Every roitrack license is pinned to the first server IP that successfully validates it. A validation attempt from any other IP gets a hard reject:

License already in use on another server.

This is what stops one license from powering multiple installs. Without it, a single leaked key could run unlimited trackers.

When you’ll hit this

  • You migrated your VPS to a new provider or new IP
  • Your VPS IP changed (rare, but happens on some providers after a snapshot restore)
  • You made a fresh install on a new box before decommissioning the old one

How to migrate

  1. Log into account.roitrack.app
  2. Click your license → Details & How to install
  3. If a pinned IP is shown, click the unpin the IP link in the yellow notice
  4. Confirm the prompt

The next successful validation from your new server claims the pin. Do this before installing on the new VPS, otherwise the new install will be rejected and you’ll have to unpin then wait a minute for the tracker to retry.

Common mistake

Trying to run the same license on two servers simultaneously — the second one will always be rejected. If you’re standing up a staging clone, use a separate license (contact support for a short-term trial).
